Geometrical product specification (GPS) - Decomposition of geometrical characteristics for manufacturing control (ISO 20170:2019)

This Standard describes principles and tools to control a manufacturing process in accordance with a GPS specification. It establishes that the result of a GPS specification, consisting of one value, is not sufficient to control a manufacturing process. For this purpose it is necessary to use a set of one or more complementary, independent characteristics that correlate to the manufacturing process parameters.
This Standard describes the concept of decomposition of the macro-geometrical part of the GPS specification. It does not cover the micro-geometry, i.e. surface texture.
The objective of the decomposition presented in this standard is to define correction values for manufacturing control or to perform a statistical analysis of the process.

Introduction
This document is a geometrical product specifications (GPS) standard and is to be regarded as a
fundamental GPS standard (see ISO 14638). It influences indirectly chain link E of the chains of
standards of geometrical characteristic (size, distance, form, orientation, location and run-out) in
the general GPS matrix model as graphically illustrated in Table A.1. The measurement as given in
chain link E is decomposed to evaluate quantity values of a geometrical characteristic, and to define
manufacturing adjustment values, not to manage the conformance of a workpiece.
The ISO GPS matrix model given in ISO 14638 gives an overview of the ISO GPS system of which this
document is a part. The fundamental rules of ISO GPS given in ISO 8015 apply to this document and
the default decision rules given in ISO 14253-1 apply to specifications made in accordance with this
document, unless otherwise indicated.
For more detailed information on the relationship of this document to other standards and to the GPS
matrix model, see Annex A.
The geometrical specification, as defined in ISO 1101, allows the evaluation of conformance or non-
conformance by defining a limit value for a geometrical characteristic as a univariate characteristic
(non-signed value). This evaluation alone does not provide the information necessary to adjust machine
tools parameters to maintain the production of conforming workpieces. The goal of decomposition of
the measurement result is to isolate parameter values that can be used to adjust the manufacturing
process. This document uses simple examples to illustrate the fundamental principles.
This document defines a number of independent characteristics obtained by decomposition that are
intended to assist with adjusting and evaluating the manufacturing process.
In statistical analysis the mean value and standard deviation are used to calculate capability indices. In
the case of a position tolerance, for example the location of a hole, which applies in a plane perpendicular
to the axis of the hole, the position characteristic is two times the radial distance between the centre of
the hole and its theoretically exact location. Capability indices based on the mean value and standard
deviation of this characteristic do not properly reflect the capability of a manufacturing process.
Instead, the position characteristic could be decomposed according to the kinematic arrangement of
the manufacturing process. If the axis of the hole is manufactured using a machine with linear X- and
Y-axes, the position characteristic could be decomposed into an X-component and a Y-component and
the studies of capability could be calculated based on these components so that they properly reflect
the capability of the manufacturing process.

Geometrical product specifications (GPS) —
Decomposition of geometrical characteristics for
manufacturing control
1 Scope
This document describes principles and tools to control a manufacturing process in accordance with
a GPS specification. For this purpose a set of one or more complementary, independent characteristics
(size, form, orientation, and location characteristics independent to each other) that correlate to the
manufacturing process parameters and to the manufacturing process coordinate system established
from the manufacturing datum system are used.
This document describes the concept of decomposition of the macro-geometrical part of the GPS
specification. It does not cover the micro-geometry, i.e. surface texture.
The objective of the decomposition presented in this document is to define correction values for
manufacturing control or to perform a statistical analysis of the process.

NOTE  A geometrical GPS characteristic is defined in ISO 25378 as a “zone characteristic”.
5 Principles
5.1 General
A GPS specification is a condition (a tolerance) applied on a univariate characteristic.
In particular for a geometrical tolerance, this characteristic can include several types of independent
deviations (size, form, orientation and location) and other kinds of deviation parameters (angle
deviations, location deviations). To control the manufacturing process, these deviations shall be
separated. This document presents a way to perform this separation for a geometrical specification,
giving inputs to corrections to manufacturing process parameters. The decomposition of a GPS
characteristic yields the components of the collected characteristic. These shall be measurable
quantities. These components can be independent GPS characteristics (form, size, orientation and
location) or components from which rotation or translation parameters reflecting the kinematics of the
manufacturing process can be derived.
Typically, the univariate characteristic of a GPS specification is defined from a set of distances between
an input feature (the toleranced feature) and a reference feature or a set of sizes. This definition is the
primary model of decomposition for the GPS specification, having these n distances as the independent
variables. Therefore if the specification is verified on a feature using for example 1 000 points on the
© ISO 2019 – All rights reserved 3

---------------------- Page: 15 ----------------------

SIST EN ISO 20170:2019
ISO 20170:2019(E)

surface, this primary model of decomposition would result in 1 000 distances. However, these 1 000
distances cannot be used directly for manufacturing process corrections.
Three geometrical features shall be distinguished in this kind of operation: the extracted feature, its
associated feature and the situation feature of the associated feature.
5.2 Decomposition process
The first step of the decomposition is to define the default form GPS characteristic of the toleranced
feature (integral or derived), G [see Figure 2 d), Figure 3 d) and Figure 4 d)]. If the associated features
F
are established by another association criteria than the default criteria (minimax – Chebyshev) then it
shall be stated in the report of results of decomposition.
NOTE The curve variation of form deviation can itself be analysed by decomposition (e.g. by Fourier
analysis or modal discrete decomposition). It is not the intent of this document to describe this process of form
decomposition.
To separate the signed orientation and location parameters, a coordinate system, for example a
Cartesian system or a polar system, shall be defined for manufacturing purpose from the datum system
attached to the manufacturing process. If the specification datum system does not lock all degrees of
freedom, it shall be complemented by a secondary datum and/or a tertiary datum defined from the
workpiece interface surfaces with the manufacturing machine.
The orientation parameters (R , R , R ) expressed by V , shall be given in angular units.
X Y Z ΔΟ
The form characteristic (G ), the independent size characteristic (G ), the independent orientation
F S
characteristic (G ), the location parameters (T , T , T ) and the independent location characteristic
O X Y Z
(G ) shall be given in linear (length) unit.
L
The independent size characteristic, (G ), only applies to features of size or to a non-feature of size on
S
which an offset can be applied and which changes its nominal shape. For a feature of size, it is defined
as the difference between the size of the direct associated integral feature and the nominal size. For a
non-feature of size on which an offset can be applied, the size deviation parameter defines the observed
offset from the nominal shape.
The direction vector of the form reference feature allows establishing the transfer angles (R , R ,
X Y
R ) from the geometrical specification Cartesian system. The relation between the manufacturing
Z
Cartesian system and the geometrical specification Cartesian system is used to define the correction
to the manufacturing process. To evaluate the independent characteristic, the restricted associated
feature shall be established by projecting the extracted feature onto the form reference feature.
The orientation reference feature is defined from the restricted associated feature. The independent
orientation characteristic, (G ), is evaluated as an orientation characteristic established from the
O
restricted associated feature (corresponding to the extracted feature, see Figure 2 e), Figure 3 e), and
Figure 4 e). The independent orientation characteristic can be decomposed in three angles (R , R , R ).
X Y Z
The independent location characteristic, (G ), is the signed distance between the location reference
L
feature and the orientation reference feature, at the location point (considered on the location reference
feature). The independent location characteristic shall be described in the manufacturing Cartesian
system. By default, it is the distance between the location point (belonging to the orientation reference
feature) and its theoretical exact location (see Figure 4 f).
The independent location characteristic can be decomposed in three linear components (T , T , T ).

system is considered identical to the specified datum system. Figure 1 b) illustrates the manufacturing
result: the workpiece. Figures 1 c) to f) illustrate steps of the decomposition process of a specified
